Priceline Hotel: 4.5* Maui Island (Wailea - Makena) Fairmont Kea Lani, Maui

[JandC]

I am trying to book a hotel for Maui and hoping to get the Fairmount Kai Lani for travel dates of 3/1/18-3/6/18.  Here is what I see on Hotwire:

 

4.5-star Resort in Wailea - Makena area

$471 per night plus $38 resort fee

 

Ammenities:

Free Internet

Free parking

Beachfront hotel

Fitness center

Indoor pool(s)

Pet friendly

Pool(s)

Resort

Smoke-free rooms

 

I'm hopeful this is the Fairmount because of the $38 resort fee.  I'm also wondering if the prices get lower closer to the travel dates?

I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you search using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com tool. (always use this method for your searches/purchases to ensure you're seeing the complete amenity set and for an easy comparison of PRICELINE vs. HOTWIRE, as well as to use our new IS THIS A GOOD PRICE feature).

If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities (including any accessible amenities) then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 4.5 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates:

 

4.5* Wailea - Makena for $472.00
Free Parking
Free Internet
Resort
Pet Friendly
Beachfront
Indoor Pool
Smoke Free
Fitness
Pool
Restaurant
Business
Laundry
Hi-Speed Internet
Golf
Spa
Childrens Activities
Deaf Accessible
Travel Accessible
Room Accessible
Wheelchair Accessible
Bathroom Accessible
Handicapped Parking
Roll-in Shower
==> if this is what you're seeing, from the Hotwire Hotel List this is an exact match for previous reports of the Fairmont Kea Lani Maui and that would be my best guess for this one.  

 

As far as hotel prices coming down, or moving higher, in the days ahead nobody can say as it will all depend up supply/demand and how actual new reservations/cancellations come in relative to expected reservations/cancellations.  However, i will add that we don't see this hotel very often, so if you do decide to wait, it may not be offered once you decide to take it.

Hi, 

 

Thank you for your initial response.  I modified the search dates and found this hot deal for travel dates of 5/9/18-5/14/18 for $398 per night.  I know the resort fee at the Fairmount in Wailea is $38 per night, but this deal says the resort fee is $31.25 per night.  Does the resort fee have to match up to the resort fee as posted on non-hot deals pricing?  These are the list of ammenities for the hotel.  If not the Fairmount, do you have a good guess for what the hotel may be?

Beachfront hotel,

Smoke-free rooms,

Fitness center,

Self-service laundry,

Thank you,

The amenity set for this one differs than the previous one above that was guessed to be the Fairmont Kea so this is likely a different property.

Fitness
Pool
Restaurant
Business
Laundry
Hi-Speed Internet

Hi, my dates are not firm.  We prefer to travel in early March or May.  I apologize if I missed the information.  For the Priceline express deal, is the price for travel dates 5/9/18-5/14/18? 

 

I have never booked with Priceline because not as much information is disclosed about the hotel.  I have trusted the advice of this forum in the past and would take a chance.  I am will to spend up to $475 per night.

 

Thank you

Hi, I got distracted and couldn't book the hotel yesterday.  I see there is still a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal for Maui Wailea 4.5 star hotel for $361 per night for a one bed and $417 per night for two beds, for the dates of 5/9/18-5/14/18. 

 

The details are:

Swimming Pool,

Fitness Center 

 

Hotel Amenities

Bed Choice Available

9+Guest Rating 40 verified guest reviews

 

Do you think it is the Fairmount?

 

 

[JandC]

I should add that my dates are fairly flexible and we can travel anytime in the beginning half of May.  If there is a better priced date, we are certainly open.  I would just really like to book the Fairmount, since all of the rooms are suites.
